Sharing Your Journey Your Way

We have to share our journey our way. That's honest and there's no real way around it. You can try to be someone else to please them, but that's all about their experience. Share what you have seen and where you have been. Share where you are. Share you.
When I created this piece of art, I did it my way. The lamp isn't really blue, but I paint it blue anyway. The wall wasn't orange either, but I can. Big Belly Vase is my business, not yours. Close your eyes if you don't like what you see.
I might sound brusque toward you, but that's not my intention. I am speaking to the voice inside of me that tries to make me be someone else. I have to shut that voice down, and I can't be nice about it or it will take over. I hope you can do the same. Don't we all struggle to be who we are? What voices speak inside you? How do you struggle to share your journey?

Tears for Dancing, Age 42
The older I get the less I think about what I can get out of this life. Bad things happen here on Earth and no one is immune. I see my parents suffering, I watch terrible things happen to my friends and I see catastrophic events that create hell on Earth. Revelation 21:4 promises that someday God will wipe every tear from our eyes and the old order of things will pass away. I’m beginning to think that this promise isn’t so far away: it’s just waiting for us at the next stop. Maybe when we die we trade our tears for dancing and enter Heaven. Until then, I'm going to paint, I'm going to write, and I'm going to share when I find hope in this life. That's why I'm here at Journey on Canvas.
